Businesses Plan Strategic Shifts to Overcome the Effects of a Strained Supply Chain

Posted: Friday, December 24, 2021 at 4:15 AM CST

Berlin, Germany -- (SBWire) -- 12/24/2021 --Over the past decade the German economy has experienced an impressive boom thanks to the impact of globalisation. However, the pandemic has caused many issues, especially because German businesses now rely on a complex international network of supply chains. That network was once the momentum for growth but, over the past year or so, has proved to be a serious vulnerability. As a result, more than half of German companies doing business abroad are now struggling with supply chains or logistics problems. Shortages, such as those affecting the supply of semiconductors and other industry components, are some of the most obvious. For many businesses these issues have been gradually getting worse - 14% of members surveyed by DIHK Chambers of Industry and Commerce said that supply chain issues were now worse than in the spring. This is going to mean a strategic shift for many businesses, shortening delivery routes, diversifying suppliers and taking steps to relocate production.
